Saturday Photo Hunt --- Creative

CREATIVE

I totally changed my mind about what to post for this theme when I went to the Granville Island market yesterday. I saw this decorated Volkswagen Beetle that someone had created with great love and attention to detail. All the people who saw it were amazed and gathered around it to take photos and generally admire it. So I present to you someone else's creativity for your enjoyment.

The front of the car. There was a tiny fountain on the hood, which you can see when you click on the photo, all the better to appreciate the detail of this creation.

Now we see the back of the car. Again please be sure to click.

I am so impressed by the vision of its creator and the effort involved in bring it to fruition.

Creative is in the eye of the beholder, i guess. i would hate to have to clean that car. Also, couldn't run any red lights since cops would know where to find you fast. lol (I would have saved it for the word weird. . . )

One mans junk is another mans treasure, thats for sure. I wonder who created this,.. he sure does have an imagination. I once saw someone's yard in Detroit like that,.... and house. They had so much stuff hanging off the house. Great photos and thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend.

That is definitely a very creative piece of work. I'm amazed, though, that it's legal to have that on the road with so many of his windows covered over, and for how much it would distract other drivers.

This volksy is so cute, can you imagine the emotion that runs through it's owner as they drive it around...it's almost been painstakingly done.

I had to stop and think if I have a tree; I will have a look....surely in my million pictures there is....but I can get a decent one anyway, have some k's to cover this week...got a ripper last week in the town of Donald, Victoria.

By the Richardson River there.. there is remnants of an old gumtree and it's trunk is in the shape of a bullock's head...actually I'll fwd you a picture...hang on a minny.

holy crap! lol...ok, I have to tell you my favorite puece on that bug...the hockey pucks and the chess pieces on the front bumper...and the whole tool box in the engine! what a bunch of everything! This is a great creative post! Thanks for visiting my photo hunt otday!

Weeks? that must have taken over a year at least with such fine detail. Amazing! One of a kind! I would have loved to meet the creator ..I'm sure that car had a story to tell...! And I would have loved to hear how it came about.Thanks for dropping by. Have a great weekend.

WOW!! does it travel, as in can one drive it? Can you imagine showing up for your red carpet entrance in that! too cool. Thank you for sharing. You have such a great eye for the unusual and the lovely.

Yes this car is registered and insured and it was parked in a one hour parking zone so needed to hustle away pretty soon. I saw a man come out and fill up the reservoir for the tiny fountain. As some have remarked, vision for the driver is limited.

I don't know anything about the car but maybe I should google and see if I can find anything more about it.Have a Happy Weekend for the remainder and enjoy the week to come.regardsjmb
